Bomb Sniffer allows players to easily spot opponents' [[bomb]]s. All bombs within a certain distance appear as skull icons on their screen. These skull icons can be seen through walls. Bomb Sniffer is restricted to [[shoes]] as a main ability.
==Mechanics==
Skull icons are displayed on the user's screen in the same location where opponent bombs within a certain distance from the user are displayed.


The ability also reduces splash damage taken from {{Weapon|S|Sub|Splat Bomb}}s, {{Weapon|S|Sub|Suction Bomb}}s, {{Weapon|S|Sub|Seeker}}s, and {{Weapon|S|Sub|Ink Mine}}s by 40%, and reduces damage taken from {{Weapon|S|Sub|Burst Bomb}}s by 20%.

**{{Weapon|S|Sub|Burst Bomb}}
*40% decrease:
**{{Weapon|S|Sub|Splat Bomb}}
**{{Weapon|S|Sub|Suction Bomb}}
**{{Weapon|S|Sub|Seeker}}
**{{Weapon|S|Sub|Ink Mine}}


The ability's effects are always active.
==Tactics==
Bomb Sniffer allows players to easily spot opponents' [[bomb]]s. It also helps to survive a [[Bomb Rush]].


== Mutual exclusivity ==
==Gear==
Since this [[ability]] is found as the main ability only on [[shoes]], other abilities found only on shoes are mutually exclusive with it; in other words you cannot have them together. These abilities are {{Ability|S|Ink Resistance Up}} and {{Ability|S|Stealth Jump}}.
The following [[gear]] items have Bomb Sniffer as their main ability. Bomb Sniffer is exclusive to shoes and cannot be rolled as a secondary gear ability.


== Use ==
{{Gear/S Shoes|ability=Bomb Sniffer|collapsed=true}}
Bomb Sniffer allows safer passage through the map by making it easier to avoid bombs. In the event that a player just barely escapes a bomb, the damage taken from that bomb will be reduced significantly, increasing chances of survival during a {{Weapon|S|Special|Bomb Rush}}.
 
== Gear ==
The following [[Gear]] items have Bomb Sniffer as their main ability. Bomb Sniffer is exclusive to Shoes items and cannot be rolled as a sub-ability.
